I'm past due for a new #introduction post! 😳

We've been on break all winter but we're getting ready to start up our daily #LittleFreeLibrary posts again in February. We've got tons of new #books, new #movies for the #FreeBlockbuster, and lots of donations for the #LittleFreePantry we put up last year. This year, we plan to add a #FreeLittleArtGallery as our last feature. Our #SilentBookClub has been hit or miss since we're in a #rural town, but the one that our friends run in the nearby city has really taken off!

As for myself, I've still been #writing almost daily. I've got a lot of material ready for my book-thing, #NotAHeroStory! In fact, I'm going to do a big round of #editing soon to trim it down. (If you're curious, it's a #fantasy that doesn't take itself too seriously but involves a lot of #PersonalGrowth and #community building. Plus #beer, #boobs, and #dragons.) I'm hoping to start #publishing it a little later this year!

Anyway, you stay classy, Fediverse!  

I am furious. A year ago, my town partnered with a family to have a deluxe (it has heat and a fridge!) Little Free Pantry. It's really nice to not have to worry about freezing cans!

Recently, people have been found sleeping in the LFP. Rather seeing that as meeting an unmet need, the Town is taking steps to criminalize needing a warm place to rest.

I'm tempted to open a 24-hour Community space where people can come in, use a restroom, have a warm beverage, etc.

‘A beautiful thing’: East Vancouver neighbourhood bands together to create community toy exchange for dogs

The Hastings-Sunrise Dog Library started out as a water dish for dogs but has since evolved into a volunteer-run mini pet store complete with a 'stick library' and a toy exchange.
